Former Zenit player Pavel Pogrebnyak shared his thoughts on the St. Petersburg team's summer new player Jerson. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
It is known that the blue-white-blue team spent 25 million euros on his transfer. Jerson came off the bench in the first round of the Premier League against Rostov, and in that match, Zenit won 2-1.
According to Pogrebnyak, Jerson is a strong player who will further strengthen Zenit. The former member of the Russian national team particularly emphasized the Brazilian player's ball-handling technique.
He stated that Jerson will be in the starting lineup in the upcoming matches. Pogrebnyak said: "In the next matches, he will be in the starting lineup.
Zenit's midfield will start to play with new colors, as currently, the team is lacking strength in that area," the RB Sport publication quoted him. Zenit's next match will take place on Sunday, July 27.
They will face the Rubin team as guests.
